Policies ♥

What I am not accepting:
- Non-fiction: I don't read much non-fiction, and am not interested in reviewing non-fiction.

- Middle grade: Middle grade novels can be the coolest things ever, but I don't read much of them since I primarily focus on YA and NA. Because of this, I am closed to middle grade requests.

Genres I will accept:I'm pretty much open to any YA or NA novel that contains romantic elements. It may be beneficial to check out some of my reviews in my review archive to get a grasp of the types of books I tend to enjoy. I do stray a bit and try new things (and sometimes I adore them), but here are the genres I most often prefer.*

How to request a review:Send me an email with the subject title: Review Request: [Title of your novel]

In your email, please be sure to include:- Summary- Release date- Book cover- A Goodreads link for your novel- Author links- Any relevant information, including why you believe your novel would be a good fit for me to review on Just a Booklover- If you have a time frame in which you would like me to review, as this very well could affect my choice on whether or not to review your novel depending on my own timeline- The format in which your novel is available to me

If I accept your book to review:Please be aware that by accepting or receiving a book, I do not guarantee that I will be able to read your book immediately and post my review immediately. I have a TBR that never stops growing, and I go to school, and I prefer to read a book when it feels best to me. I will definitely try to read and review your novel in a timely manner, but that is not always possible.

If the book is an ARC, I will try to post my review sometime on or around the release date.

I also reserve the right to NOT post a review of your book if I do not feel comfortable doing so, for whatever reason (because I've run out of time, don't really have anything to say about it, etc.)

I do aim to post my reviews on Amazon and Goodreads, but I do tend to get behind sometimes.

If I didn't enjoy your book:My reviews are my honest opinion, and if I do not like your book my review will reflect that. I will not write a positive review simply because you send me the book. If you are not okay with the possibility of me not enjoying your book, thus possibly receiving a negative review, then I am likely not a good fit to send a review request to. Even if I dislike your book, my review will still be respectful and honest. By sending me a review request, you are acknowledging that a review may be negative, yet respectful, and I would appreciate that your response to my review be gracious and not attacking.

Along with reviews, I am open to:- Giveaways*- Author interviews (preferably an author I am somewhat familiar with)- Character interviews (I would need to read the book first for this to take place)*- Blog tours*- Cover reveals*- Guest posts

*I generally prefer to host these things for books that I believe I would enjoy/am excited for and would want to read myself.

If you have followed my guidelines and your book falls under the genres of what I'm accepting and you have NOT heard from me, I apologize but I am not able to respond to every review request. However, I try my best and I am so honored you want me to read your book!

I am not paid to blog or review. It would be super cool if I was, but I am not. I just love books. Please keep this in mind when working with me. I don't have an established tight schedule with my reading because I don't want to take the fun and enjoyment away from reading. For this reason, I'll only accept deadlines that I agree to beforehand.

About Me

I'm just an 18 year old girl who loves books and has a tendency to care very much about book characters. Especially the cute male ones. I also like to laugh. Just saying. Here I review books, gush about books, and rant about books. Thank you so much for dropping by, and if you need to contact me for any reason, you can always reach me here: makesmeworse12@gmail.com
